Amule asks me for libcurl.so.2, in FC3 there is only libcurl.so.3, has anyone resolved the problem without installing a lot of programs like curl-ssl or others just for having this library?
Thanks in advance

im running into the same issue with centericq-4.12.0. tried both an rpm install [needs libcurl.so.2, i have so.3], and a straight compile. neither work.

I ran into this problem as well as well when installing an rpm package. To get around this I simply created a symbolic link called libcurl.so.2 pointing at libcurl.so.3. Worked like a charm for me. It may not work for you if there is particular functionality differences between the two. Worth a try.

tried your link trick from libcurl.so.3.0.0 ==> libcurl.so.2, still no go. [dammit!]

i also tried compiling up an older version of libcurl with a --prefix=/my/home/curl-verson to get the libcurl.so.2 library and copied the libs over to /usr/local/lib. adjusted /etc/ld.so.conf so that /usr/local/lib was read during the linking process, and ran ldconfig --verbose and prelink --all, just to make sure. from there i tried a reinstall of the rpm that required the dep, and a straight build, still no luck.

anyone else have any other ideas?

mael... what package were you installing? from what i have been reading, there are not many packages that CANT handle this upgraded lib.
